Folks,

How do you do a "dramatic" sound? Yesyerday I was rehearsing some Verdi Ouverture with the orchestra and the conductor was requiring all the time a more dramatic sound...the dynamic mark was only f so increasing the volume did not help much...Do you change your articulation or something else somehow in such cases....The usual comments from conductors are something like biger, or more centered, louder, sfter, darker, lighter etc. But this was the first time I got such a comment. So, what would you do?
